Pacemaker

Again this year, participants can take advantage of the Pacemaker Service provided by SPORTaktiv and Garmin. Well-trained and experienced pacemakers will run at a steady pace from the start, helping you achieve your desired finish time.

Here’s how it works: On Sunday from 9:30 a.m., you’ll find our Pacemaker Meeting Point in the starting area, marked with blue beach flags displaying the respective target times. There, the SPORTaktiv and Garmin pacemakers will be waiting to guide you toward your goal. These skilled and experienced pacemakers will maintain a consistent pace throughout the entire marathon. All you need to do is stay close behind your chosen pacemaker — easily recognizable by their large flags showing the target finish time.

There is also a Pacemaker Service for the Half Marathon with a target time of 2 hours.
